Hi,

i seem to have the following problem. I've created a CXTPommandBar on a CXTPDialogBase derived class like in the DialogSample like this:

VERIFY(InitCommandBars());

CXTPCommandBars* pCommandBars = GetCommandBars();

CXTPToolBar* pToolBar = pCommandBars->Add(_T("Planning"), xtpBarTop);

pToolBar->LoadToolBar(IDR_PLANVIEW_TOOLBAR);

pToolBar->ShowExpandButton(FALSE);

pToolBar->GetControls()->CreateOriginalControls();

On the commandbar i've created a CXTPControlComboBox by using the following code in the OnCreateControl of the CXTPDialogBase derived class:

m_pFilterCombo = new CXTPControlComboBox(GetCommandBars());

lpCreateControl->pControl = m_pFilterCombo;

m_pFilterCombo->SetWidth(140);

m_pFilterCombo->SetHeight(200);

m_pFilterCombo->SetDropDownListStyle(FALSE);

m_pFilterCombo->SetEnabled(TRUE);

The combobox shows up perfectly and i can access it in code, it just never seems to be set to enabled.

I've tried adding

ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI and

ON_XTP_EXECUTE handlers to the CXTPDialogBase derived class and to the mainframe and main program view but nothing seems to work, even if i use pCmdUI->SetEnable(TRUE) on any of those levels.

One more thing to note would be that the CXTPDialogBase derived class is created and added to a pane that's added to the DockingPaneManager in the CMainFrame.

Any help on the subject would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Well for some reason it works now. I've readded the

ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI and

ON_XTP_EXECUTE handlers to the CXTPDialogBase derived class and now the combobox is enabled. The only difference i can think of are the

pToolBar->GetControls()->CreateOriginalControls();

and

m_pFilterCombo->SetEnabled(TRUE);

lines since the last time i tried this.
